Great place to stay.

The breakfast was a little sparse, otherwise very pleasant stay. The pool was slightly cool, but we enjoyed it. The hot tub was slightly hotter than I like, but I stayed for five minutes. The fire pit seemed to keep the May flies away.

This family owned resort is truly wonderful and full of relaxing areas around various fireplaces indoors and out. The pool and hot tub were wonderful! The continental breakfast was great. The best part was the staff who were friendly and helpful as they knew the peninsula very well! I would recommend this resort to everyone looking for a get-away!

You're foolish if you don't pick this lodge

We checked in and we were so impressed with the property, room, and service, we booked a 2nd night's stay. Firepits make for conversation under the stars or in the lobby. The extra pampering for our pup was above average and special. If we lived in the state or ever come thus way again, this is where we would stay. Highly recommend this family owned and operated (for over 20 years) lodge. Fun for the whole family or just a couple.
